Calypso Restaurant-Pompano Beach

Based on reviews of which the source I can't remember-I tried Restaurant Calypso on Cypress just south of Atlantic. Well I could not be happier and fuller right now. The place was packed. Loud and full of young people, fairly caucasian which suprised me. i ordered jerk wings and a chicken roti to go. I live in Toronto and the city is the most multi-cultural in the world. We have a huge West Indian population and a ton of great restaurants to cater to this segment of the population. Calypso measures up great. The wings had lots of spice and the roti reminded me exactly of the roti I get at my local Jamaican establishment Albert's Real Jamaican. Tender chicken with a great curry sauce. I saw lots of people eating raw oysters and huge burgers and lots of different beers on tap. I will return on my future trips to S. Florida.
